successfully overclocked ati x850 pro

[paulm_802]

i opened the 16 pipes on the video card by flashing with the x850 xt bios then flashing back to the original bios, i used atiflash with the bios and had no problems. the card is stable at 555 mhz core and 585 mhz memory, with original stock cooler it runs around 70c under load. oh yea it's the agp model.

do i really need an aftermarket cooler for these speeds, the memory only gets up to 40c and vpu does around 70c under load.???????????

Same temps as mine card.
Not modded and it's pcie.
Unless it's below 20Celcius in your room,I would not expect your card to go over 75C. on a summerday.
